A Son for a Daughter by Sleepingseeker

Broken Cycle by Sleepingseeker

​

Dark one shot. He is unraveling. Torn between what he was molded to be and what he knows is right, Leonardo's greatest foe is not an enemy from the outside world, but the clash of nature vs. nurture. It's hopeful to think one can break a cycle - but when faced with the pressures of reality perhaps not possible, after all. Rated: T

One reflects in his last moments what it means to be honest with yourself.

​

==========

​

(un)reality by SpectrumWriting

​

Mikey wakes up inside a cell.

​

Being confined, in any shape or form, is an immediate red flag for him. He’s never been confined by anything other than the vague fear of being discovered by humans. Coming back to consciousness, somewhere dark, cold, and sealed off- that’s something he can’t even understand at first.

​

It comes back to him in pieces, slower than the sluggish blinking of his eyes. Fragments of running, of being pursued, of a scouting mission gone wrong-

​

Mikey jerks himself out of his haze by force.

​

He knows where he is. Rated: M

​

==========

​

Antithesis by VenusTheMarvelTurtle

**Fan Fiction Competition Winner**

​

It started with a Bug and an abstract mutter. It ended with kisses flavored with blood, cold blades and bite marks, drugged confessions and a twisted, shadow bred love that was never meant to be, unless, of course, it was. Raphael opens his heart to what he thinks is an equally broken spirit and pays for it tenfold. Meanwhile, others simmer and scheme against a backdrop of ugly truths. Rated: E

​

==========

​

==========

​

Dark Skies by Caroaimezoe
 

Donnie had to escape and quickly. He could read the gaze of the turtle he had spent a lifetime with. Whether the bandana was blue or black, Leonardo had the same eyes. The eyes of a man with an ace up his sleeve. Rated: E

​

==========

​

Downward Spiral by jadefirefly3D

**Fan Fiction Competition Winner**

​

It's a well-known fact that Raphael has a short fuse, but lately his temper is out of control. In a fit of rage he accidentally does the unthinkable and the aftermath tests them all. The bonds of brotherhood are broken and nothing will ever be the same. 2012 'verse. Rated: T

​

What You Wish For by Two_Roads_And_A_Penny

​

==========

​

I Hate Space by Fihi

**Fan Fiction Competition Winner**

​

What's the most terrifying thing about space? It's not the creepy alien monster on that planet, or the unexplainable black hole in this galaxy. It's how far apart, infinite, yet connected it is. How very little it takes to get lost in it forever. – Raph definitely knows. (2012, space arc, psychological thriller) Rated: M

​

==========

​

Send Your Lifeboats Out For Me by Crowdog

​

The Extent of agony by Multifandom_damnation

​

The room was made up of sterile white walls and floor tiles that reflected Leo’s face back at him and four cages of equal size pressed against the walls. As he looked closer he noticed that each cage had a colour coded clip-board magnetised to the bars and each cell held a curled up figure with green skin and a large tortoiseshell and a coloured bandanna matching the clipboard. Rated: M

​

Masks by squishyturtlefuckfics

​

2k12 centric. Will contain themes of violence, non-consensual/dub-consensual sex and tcest among others. I'll tag each chapter appropriately so you can skip anything you don't like.

​

Infestation by mud_mouthh
 

Donatello has a spark of newfound confidence when he scores himself a packet of LSD! He's finally ready to venture deep into the forest and give himself what he deserves.

​

He's truly twisted. A creature as demented and cacky as he doesn't deserve to exist. So he takes it upon himself to lovingly yet excruciatingly give himself over to the hands of Mother Nature.
